    protip: most of the bernie haters are forum sliders. Mods are even less likely here to do anything about it than on reddit.

    Lemmy should be a place Bernie’s policies are celebrated, but due to shills, bots, bad actors and just trolls, every post about him will be brigaded and turned into a shitshow

    Lemmy is complicit in our march towards fascism and their lack of action is telling of their motivations

      Make another instance. You have a Bernie community. I also do support Bernie Sanders, it’s just that we all know Trump is bad and saying so is redundant.

      First of all, a social media site has no action. Regardless, I have seen tons of articles shared on here about how awful Trump is. Secondly, I have been working at food banks and engaging in protests. I’ve been emailing my senators, and getting people to support Cascadian Separatism, if not Bioregionalism, and letting them know about other ideas that would help. I am also disabled with PDD-NOS by my doctor when I was a toddler, despite this; I do my best to regularly meet people, learn from them, and tell them about my ideas. In fact, I’ve been voting in State elections and County elections for the candidates that I want, working my best at the State level if not the National level.

      Or this is just a bad attempt at manipulating conservative rotbrains from Bernie, who knows they don’t mind being called fascists which has led him to the conclusion of calling them communists instead.

      He’s probably right about what will bother them but he’s just playing into their rhetoric in the end.
